Agism in Focus
This is a free in-person event at Macon County Public Library, facilitated by the Vaya Health’s Health Education and Aging Resource Team (HEART). Contact Hours are provided through NC Department of Health and Human Services.
This course offers an examination of ageism and its effects on older adults in various aspects of life, including health care, social interactions, and community engagement. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how age-based discrimination impacts well-being and learn practical strategies to challenge and reduce ageism, fostering a more inclusive and respectful environment for all ages.
